    Silent Auction for Roger Grago Benefit - Item#14 Original NOS 1973 911 Owner's Manual

    As many of you know by now, Roger Grago (a close friend of all of us) has fallen ill with Brain Cancer. We will be hosting all kinds of events to help raise money for his family due to their lack of insurance. There is more info on Roger in the "General Information" section of this website.

    So, we decided to leverage the generosity of so many of all of you and hold a silent auction to raise money.

    To bid, simply reply to this thread with your name and your bid amount. This auction will end at 9:00am Pacific Time on Tuesday, November 2nd (1 week). The highest bed closest to the 9am date stamp on your post will win. Payments will need to be made by check made out to "Calvary Chapel Foothill Ranch" with Roger Grago in the memo and the auction item you won. They will need to be mailed to me at:

    AutoKennel
    1974 Charle Street
    Costa Mesa, CA 92627
    714-335-4911

    This is a stunning 1973 Porsche 911 Owner's Manual. It is a reprint that Nick Psyllos got at the lit show and generously donated. It looks in new condition.

    I'll bid $125

    Can someone tell me the difference between and owners manual and a drivers manual? I recognize the color difference but is there a content difference?

    Thanks.

    I just edited the post. I found out that Nick Psyllos donated it and it is not an NOS one but rather a reprint...sorry for the confusion.

    Apologies for the inconvenience but in consideration of the revised post I am removing my bid. Tom Riding is back in the lead at $100.
